Bathtime Fun

The girls always seem to have a great time in the bathtub and have  been known to request a bath or two even when one is not required. Santa brought them letters and numbers for the bath last Christmas, and this has become a favorite toy. Bubble bath is a close second. Emma and Caroline always request "hats" when Lucas gives them a bubble bath, which basically means that Lucas puts bubbles on top of their heads and tries to make them stand straight up! Of course, as with everything, bathtime is an opportunity for the girls to show some independence, so we've had lots of "I wash my body myself" and "I can do it" hair shampooings lately. As these pictures show, there is almost never anything mundane about this evening ritual.


Think there's enough stuff in there??

Emma loves "floating" in her bath


Caroline and Emma use "stracini" to get clean

When the bath is over, the girls ask to be swaddled in their towels and look at the "baby" in the mirror


Let's not forget to brush our teeth!
